So anyone hear of it and/or play it? The reviewer gives it 8 out of ten. The graphics look pretty dated, althought that's not obstacle to it being a good game.

Well, if they could simulate the Lovecraftean atmosphere, it might be worth looking into.


The Good: Great mix of adventure, exploration, action, and stealth mechanics; creepy, compelling storyline; invisible interface adds to immersion; some outstanding audio; intense chase sequences.

The Bad: A straight port of the Xbox version that could have been enhanced for the PC; stealth and shooting sequences are relatively unimpressive on their own; visuals look fairly dated at times.

The player reviews are all for it. I haven't played the game and neither has anyone whose opinion I can trust, so no real input from me.

Unfortunately, the company which developed Call of Cthulhu is broke. They were left with no more money.

And the expansion pack was near released when they got into this state. Sorry for the fans.

Never played it though.
